There it is: $20 billion for Argentina at the same time they’re taking markets away from our farmers.

But no $ for health insurance for Americans?

RIFed:

Several CDC staff currently working on an Ebola outbreak overseas.

You know — the ones literally helping contain and prevent it from spreading. (Like, to the U.S.)

Trust us: dying from Ebola is a MISERABLE way to die.

NCHC, National Center for Health Statistics - comms, policy, leadership

🧠🪱 - Do you need me to define health statistics for you?
All your concerns about chronic disease, indigenous health disparities, etc — we know what’s an issue AFTER we measure it.

🚨Measles is spreading in U.S. In 2025, there have been 1,563 measles cases in 41 states. This is nearly a 450% increase compared to 2024. Almost all cases are in unvaccinated people.

This is highest incidence of measles in more than 20 yrs. Measles rapidly spreads when vaccine coverage slips.

Speaker Mike “little” Johnson we disagree… We say, standing up against a wanna-be king is not hate, it is PATRIOTISM.

Trump and Russ Vought don’t have to lay off federal workers. They’re choosing to because they want to “inflict maximum pain” on the American people.

It’s time for Republicans to come to the table and end this chaos.

We’re eight days away from #NoKings Day, and over 2,500 protests planned in all 50 states and across the world. October 18 is going to be the biggest day of nonviolent protest in US history — because Courage is contagious.
Seattle Center at noon!

Are we watching?

Senator Ed Markey @markey.senate.gov · 1d

In the middle of a government shutdown—while millions of Americans face down dramatic increases in their health care premiums—the Senate just voted to send another $900 BILLION to our already bloated pentagon budget. Disgusting.
